CA daily briefing: Friday 27 March 2020

27 March 2020

Your essential briefing of the morning's top news stories.

Good morning, Hilde Oesterkloeft here to give you the morning's updates from ICAS and around the world.

The latest from ICAS

April's edition of the CA magazine features three CAs working for airlines, an interview with author and entrepreneur Julia Hobsbawn on the need to keep it simple, and reflections from Ken Allen, CEO of multinational giant DHL Express.

As of 25 March 2020, businesses are now able to apply for a 3-month extension for filing their accounts. This joint initiative between the government and Companies House will mean businesses can make managing the impact of coronavirus their priority.

The roll-out of 30-day reporting for UK property gains is going to bring challenges. HMRC is stepping up communication to taxpayers. Philip McNeill looks at a specific challenge for agents – being authorised by clients to act on their behalf for the new service.

Are claims and elections time consuming or difficult to administer? Could there be an easier way to make claims? Are any particularly easy, or troublesome? Philip McNeill notes that the OTS is conducting a review and would like your views.
